Great episode. I see Gabi's annoying as usual. I still don't trust Zeke though, he never told what his actual plan was. For all we know, his plan would be much different than scouts and Eren. Regarding Armin and Eren's conversation, I'm with Eren on this one. Armin's just too optimistic. The situation had already escalated enough that simple talks and diplomacy would never work. Peace by simple talks seems even more doubtful now that we know about outside world. If the people who are supposed to treat eldians best are marleyans who treat them as livestocks, then diplomacy between rest of the world and paradis seems extremely difficult and untrustworthy. Use of force would have been necessary at some point.

Armin uses Onyakopon and other Marley rebels for his argument. But that proves nothing. People like Onyakopon are too few or powerless. If most people were like Onyakopon, this war wouldn't have been started. It's just human nature to fight each other. Be it over resources or differences. Be it very small differences like taste, preference, hobbies or the bigger ones like race, ethnicity and culture. People have and continue to kill each other over such differences. All these differences pale in comparison to difference between Eldian and Non-Eldians.

Eren is right here. The difference between Eldians and Non-Eldians just too huge. There will always be animosity and fear between them. And now that fear is even more justified since we(viewers) and Marley know that Eren was able to use founding titan without being a royal blooded eldian. Now they know any random rebellious eldian can usurp the founding titan and start the rumbling if the conditions are right. They have got even more reason to fear the Eldians. Armin just seems too awestruck by the nice strangers he met that he seems to have forgotten how the rest of the world is.

Another fantastic episode, respect to Levi for resisting chopping Zeke into pieces lmao. Our flashback Survey Corps looking good and it's also nice to see Pixis again. Even in flashbacks, Sasha has a way to invade our hearts T_T. Onyankopon is a cool ass dude.

FINALLY THE CHAD MAN BUN EREN HAS ARRIVED

Really looking forward to the next episode, expect more dialogue heavy episodes.

I feel bad since I can't relate to a lot of people with the Sasha thing. It's sad but I don't really feel anything when I see her in these flashbacks.

I thought the whole flashback section of the episode was really interesting and I already kind of assumed that Armin was talking to Annie because there really isn't anyone else who would be intentionally hidden. Eren looked amazing in the mirror scene and I can't wait until next week

Everything you said is what I felt watching the ep.I did feel for Nicolo,but I can't believe how people say I cried the whole ep or were hurting to watch Sasha.It was sad and author did a good job emphasizing on it with this whole crush thing,but thats it for me and I am ready to move on.

About Annie,it was easy,hints were given in the trailer,with Armin sitting and talking to Annie.

People talking about "man-bun" scene,just shut up.I was ok,I will take buffed up eren anyday and I don't care about a silly hairstyle,which I don't see any problem compared to the manga

Here's the original panel, you piece of a jerk. You give it to a 5-year-old to color it and could make it better.



Those of you who defend Mappa are directly retarded.


He looks like a malnourished TWAT in this one. Isayama's art was never that strong to being with.

He does look a bit too slim, but malnourished? Really?

Beautiful episode, getting a flashback to whatever the heck happened in that 3 year timeskip. Kind of irritated as to why the Paradis people are trying to kill the Marleyans that helped them now. Character development and world building is always welcomed in my book.

This episode had the best of things. The plot twist where Eren goes his own way after the meeting(he loses hope in the officials). Sasha flashbacks(Poor Niccolo). Armin monologue regrets. ANNIE! Zeke on Hotel TreeVago XD. Why is Onnyakopon black? And the best mastermind YELENA!!
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

Honestly, I do miss dialogue-heavy episodes like this, as Attack on Titan does them incredibly well.

The flashback did a great job at explaining what happened in the 3-year timeskip before the attack on Marley, where a band of rogue Marleyan soldiers who wanted to help the Eldian group to get their revenge. Although, now that Zeke is under their control and they have the titan serum, I was a bit surprised to see Pixis' group aiming their guns at the rogue Marleyans. I wonder if Yelena and the others will be spared or shot dead. Who knows...

Sasha's screentime in the flashback was bittersweet, though. She was really amusing when she tried lobster meat for the first time, but it still saddens me that she's gone. I do respect Niccolo for offering Sasha's parents to cook for them, which they accepted. =)

Eren at the end gives me some vibes that the next set of episode will be tense. I think that's almost a given, as he's put his hair into a man bun while muttering "fight" to himself. This rollercoaster ride is far from over, that's for sure. =3

Omfg Armin talking to Annie. I got the chills.

Niccolo offering to cook for Sasha’s fam, that was so sad. RIP Sasha (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)

Loved that scene of Mikasa, Armin & Eren. Even the most subtle details like Armin getting startled by Eren’s gunshots. I can’t even begin to imagine what Armin’s going thru. And then that transition from Eren’s bullet to the bullet that killed Sasha. Damn. Cinematic.

Zeke’s face when he saw his, in the words of Levi, ~~~~~lavish~~~~~~ hotel trolllololllll I’m dead







but i’ll probably remember over and over again

No lmao, this is not how it works. Quality will drop now and we will get movie level storyboarding in the final episodes. An animator even said this on twitter. Production schedule is extremely tight.

Then tell me how does it work, the titans and the CGI were the real problem of this season, seeing big chonky CG models of titans running around doesn't look good to many people, next few episodes will have less of that, so that means better reception. And like I said, if MAPPA can't pull off the non-titan scenes, then it's okay to lose all hope in MAPPA.
I'm not sure why you are concerned about reception. This season will possibly reach the #1 spot on MAL. Not only that it is one of the most talked about anime of all time. It is being recieved well regardless of CGI.

What an emotional heavy episode.

Seeing Sasha eating and enjoying Niccol'os food was bitter sweet. The conversation between Armin, Mikasa and Eren just shows how far they've come.

Levi itching to kill MONKE is hilarious. This season is gonna be great.

So we got a quick flashback about what happened between season 3 and season 4. I thought those deserters would be Eldians, but apparently they are not. I never noticed that Eldians can't be black somehow, guess that's how much I care about skin color lol
As Armin said, what they did was inevitable. Levi was quite savage with Zeke this episode, loved it. Wonder what they are planning to do with him, giving him a "hotel" in the forest.

man i loved reading these chapters. they were a good pause from all the action and seeing them animated was just as satisfying.

best girl yelena is here baby! get ready for the influx of shippers coming up in the next few episodes, i've already seen some fellow zevi stans born from their banter.....but that's all i'm gonna say about them :)

i'm so happy we get to see niccolo, he's so wholesome guys - i can see him turning into a fan-favorite now that he's been animated

i know there's been some backlash about sasha asking onyankopon "why are you black" but you have to remember that the paradisians haven't really ever seen POC. they've been trapped on this island behind the walls for hundreds of years. and i think it's safe to say onyankopon ended racism with his answer (i'm partially kidding)

next time, HISTORIA!!!!

I do not trust Zeke at all; he clearly has his own agenda and he doesn't care who he fucks over to see it through. On the other hand, it's undeniable that Paradis wouldn't stand a chance against Marley if he and Yelena hadn't helped them 3 years ago.

It was amazing how this episode slowly built up a sense of dread and I'm pretty sure we're gonna hit the peak of it next week!

Damn, even in the flashbacks Mikasa's chin makes me wonder if she's related to American Dad. Sasha's parts didn't do much for me, since i found her to be a one-dimentional character with a food obsession gimmick. The rest of episode wa alright, left me curious about how Monke Man allied with Levi and others. I would also like to find out more about Bob Marley's conflicts and the rebels.

Now this is the flashback episode I wanted to see, I was curious why Eren and the others invaded Marley and also with the help of some insiders, Hange and the others were so lucky that the Marleyan traitors are engineers :)

Kinda sad seeing Nicollo crying over Sasha even though he was from opposite side.

Zeke's hotel...hihihi nice surprise xD

I'm kind of confused, and wonder if someone can explain some to me (as far as the show goes, no manga knowledge)

What did Eren do?? I'm still confused what happened there.
Also why are they holding the Volunteers captive suddenly? I thought they we're working together? Maybe I just missed it...

Eren went rogue and would have carried out his plan regardless if the scouts joined him or not. Obviously, the scouts didnt want to risk losing Eren so they were forced to join the raid on Liberio.

The volunteers were held captive because they dont fully trust them and want to be cautious. Especially with Zekes return to the island.

Another good news is that Sawano should take over Kohta Yamamoto by this episode, so we can probably expect some GOAT tier soundtracks. During Eren’s shooting practice, I could hear a mix of WMId and something else, could this be it? A new GOAT tier Sawano track?

I wonder if you are basing this on a thread made here on mal about sawano doing the music for 2nd half of the season? The op cleared that it was a translation mistake of yamamoto's tweet, the more accurate translation was that yamamoto said that his composed tracks will be used for marley side and old sawano's tracks will be used for paradise side. It's not that sawano will be composing new tracks(i also hope that sawano does some new tracks, it would be epic man). The track used during the shooting scene isn't new, it's used in s3, i think the track is 2An, i really love the track, fking goosebumps everytime lol

This EP felt like a lot of material compressed into a small shell. I like Hange's welcoming speech to marleyan marines. Sasha's love for food is unpaired, especially when it comes to meat. Eren and his friends struggle with the remaining time, they have to utilise every days from now on, before they run out of time.

It's still not what the tweet said... Sawano is composing new tracks this season, but there weren't meant to be used only in the second half, the tweet says some of them actually played in episode 7.

It's probably safe to assume that we'll hear more new Sawano tracks now that we're in Paradis (since he's composing music for Paradisians), but that doesn't mean he's taking over Yamamoto, we'll still hear his tracks as well.

"so do you remember that titan I touched two seasons ago so she was my grandma and somehow that made my rumbling go brrrr and I just remembered it because it finally became plot-relevant trolololo"

Welp, Isayama bullshiting us as usual in Araki forgot levels. I won't complain much because I can't remember if that was the least foreshadowed or explained before, but welp.

I liked this episode a lot though. I think this was the first time I ever cared for these characters in the past. Seeing how much they changed really put it in perspective.
